Career
Born Walter Notheis, Jr. in St. Louis, Missouri, Scott found fame with Bob Kuban and The In-Men in 1966 with the song "(Look Out For) The Cheater". "The Cheater" spent eleven weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at #12 in March of that year. Scott left the group soon after to attempt a solo career. When this failed, Scott began touring with a cover band during the 1970s. In early 1983, Scott and Bob Kuban performed together for a television appearance and planned to reunite the band for their twentieth anniversary in June 1983.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“The 19-year-old Diana ... decided to make her career that of wife. Today that can be a very, very iffy line of work.... And what sometimes happens to the women who pursue it is the best argument imaginable for teaching girls that they should always be able to take care of themselves.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“Clearly, society has a tremendous stake in insisting on a woman’s natural fitness for the career of mother: the alternatives are all too expensive.”
—Ann Oakley (b. 1944)
““Never hug and kiss your children! Mother love may make your children’s infancy unhappy and prevent them from pursuing a career or getting married!” That’s total hogwash, of course. But it shows on extreme example of what state-of-the-art “scientific” parenting was supposed to be in early twentieth-century America. After all, that was the heyday of efficiency experts, time-and-motion studies, and the like.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
